Razor Gillette Single Ring
This shave with my oldest DE razor paired with the special blade was nothing but perfection. This razor can be cranky and blade choice makes a difference. 3 very smooth, comfortable, and crisply efficient passes gave me a bbs result without any issues. The blade is good!
Razor Gillette British RFB
This shave with both Vintage razor and blade was interesting. The blade did not feel as smooth unless riding the cap but it is surprisingly efficient. 3passes for a bbs/dfs finish with some red tiny spots.
Gears that started it all... Razor Edwin Jagger DE89L Blade Feather Hi-Stainless 1st
Bought my 1st DE razor with this blade all the way from the UK back in mid-2019. 1st shave was not good at all...didn't realize need soap/cream lather...I used the canned foam, resulting in nicks and irritations.
Today, recreate the same and it was sooo smooth and comfortable 3passes without any issues for a bbs finish. Razor & blade were perfect combos...hardly any blade feels but back then it was scary...
